Starting the Engine

Automatic Transmission
Move your shift lever to PARK (P) or
NEUTRAL (N). Your engine will not start
in any other position — that is a safety feature.
To restart when you are already moving, use
NEUTRAL (N) only.
Notice: Do not try to shift to PARK (P) if
your vehicle is moving. If you do, you could
damage the transmission. Shift to PARK (P)
only when your vehicle is stopped.
